This event must be unique. It is the only time in my life where I have seen the work of professional artists, amateur artists, shopkeepers and school children all combined seamlessly in the same exhibition. As everybody works with the same basic form, the exhibition has a sense of unity that is very unusual. The youngest artists probably age from around two years old through to artists in their nineties. One aim of this event is to bring the village together and bring people to the village. There is a genuine depth to the creative pool that exists in this area. Each year there are people who make an egg for the first time and we all wonder at their extraordinary imagination.
